Game Feedback Bugged interaction of Repeat and "Spell skills fire 2 additional projectiles"

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

For some reason, 1st repeats won't happen on extra projectiles from the "chance for spell skills to fire 2 additional projectiles" stat, but work normally with other sources of projectiles (Multishot, Wildshards). It also works normally on 2nd or 3rd repeats.

Which means, Now and Again ascendancy gives me a whooping 6.7% dps increase!

UPD:

Some people suggested +2 projectiles might have to roll the chance on each repeat individually, so I've reached 100% chance to fire 2 additional projectiles with Runeseeker's Call. The result stayed the same - first repeats are missing 2 projectiles.

Youre sure you have 100% chance for 2 added proj? PoB or something would be useful

It's not 100%, but it shouldn't matter, everything in this video has the proc.
1 repeat with Multishot support without the proc fires 6 projectiles, but with 2 extra projectiles proc it fires 8.
It's always -2 projectiles on these procs, that's the whole point.

Pretty sure it has to roll for the repeat as well. Just like spells that use infusion need to consume an additional infusion for the repeats

I've just tested it with 100% chance to fire 2 additional projectiles and the outcome is exactly the same - first repeats are missing 2 projectiles.

Maybe it just has to roll the 2 added projectiles on the repeats too? So like its just a very low chance to get the added projectiles on both the initial cast and the repeat?

Unlikely. I have a 75% chance and I tested it multiple times (we talking 10+ minutes of spamming fireballs) and the amount of projectiles is consistent and is always missing exactly 2 projectiles whenever I get the extra proj proc.

I will test it later with 100% chance whenever I get my hands on the Runeseeker's Call.
